I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org

We're not done yet | 18F

This man voted to lose his job! He didn’t listen. He voted for all of us to lose our rights and benefits! MAGA is finding out!

As often as people have been ripped off or scammed, why would ANYONE in their right mind think it's a good idea to eliminate the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau?

Any politician who thinks it's OK needs to fucking resign.

A mother and her younger son lived on the left bank of the Kherson region, still under Russian occupation.

The older son worked for the Kherson State Emergency Service on the right bank. And after 2.5 years of separation, they were finally able to meet.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Trump is diagnosable can any rules that get them fired also get him fired?

It’s nice for some groups. Developmental disability gets most of the advocacy. Walking wounded are a lot of the homeless. We’ve less resources & no real advocates. We have less privacy rights than criminals. Our HA also selects people to get extra help in housing .(Meaning who you know vs need)

Incoming U.S. President Donald Trump promised to end the Ukraine-Russia war during his campaign. As inauguration approaches on Jan. 20, the Kyiv Independent’s Francis Farrell lays out the four scenarios that could see an end to the war in Ukraine — for better or worse.

How will Russia’s war end?
